Objective:To improve the quality standard for Shengji ointment. Methods:A TLC method was used to identify Resina draconis and Olibanum. An HPLC method was used to determine the content of silver sulfadiazine. The detection wavelength was set at 254 nm. The determination was performed on a Wondasil C18 column(250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5 μm) with the mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile-0. 1% phosphoric acid(8: 92). The injection volume was 5 μl. Results:The TLC spots were clear, specific and repro-ducible. A good linear relationship was obtained between the peak areas and the concentrations of sulfadiazine within the range of 40. 97-1024. 18 μg·ml-1(r=0. 9999). The average recovery was 100. 17% (RSD=0. 64%,n=6). Conclusion: The methods are easy-operated, specific, reproducible and accurate, which can be used for the quality control of the preparation.

Objective: To design a convenient and safe leg support of lithotomy position surgical bed. Methods:Put the gas spring in the device to lift and drop the leg support, instead of turning screw, And then use the new leg support in 80 lithotomy position surgeries. Results:The new device can be operated by one man, it is easy operating and labor saving. There was no leg slip occurred in 80 surgeries, operators all expressed satisfaction. Conclusion: This innovation patent solved the problem of toilsome operating and potential safety hazard, It worth widely use in the clinical.

Objective:To establish a GC method for determining the content of amantadine hydrochloride in pediatric paracetamol and amanatadine hydrochloride granules. Methods:The ingredients were separated on an Agilent DB-5 quartz capillary column (30 m ×0.25 mm, 0.25 μm), the carrier gas was N2,and the flow rate was 1 ml·min-1. The column temperature was maintained at 130℃, the injection temperature was 250℃,the detection temperature was 280℃ with an FID as the detector , the injection volume was 2 μl, and the split ratio was 20∶1. Results:A good linear relationship was obtained between the peak area and the concentration of amantadine hydrochloride within the range from 0.103 2 to 6.456 0 mg·ml-1(r =0.999 9). The average recovery was 100.18%(RSD=0. 11%, n=6). Conclusion:The method is specific, accurate, reliable and reproducible, which can be used in the quality control of pediatric paracetamol and amanatadine hydrochloride granules.

Objective To explore the association of osteoporosis with blood pressure variability in elderly patients with hypertension complicated by osteoporosis, as well as its mechanisms. Methods A total of 189 elderly patients with hypertension were selected. According to the diagnostic criteria for osteoporosis, the patients were divided into three groups. 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure and IL-6 were detected in all the patients, and then compared among different groups. Results For the three group, there were statistical differences in levels of IL-6 and blood pressure variability (P < 0.05). Blood pressure variability was negatively correlated with BMD (P < 0.05). 3. IL-6 was positively related with blood pressure variability (P < 0.05), but had a negative correlation with BMD (P < 0.01). IL-6 had significant statistical differences among different sexes (P < 0.01). Conclusions Osteoporosis is closely associated with blood pressure variability in the elderly patients. IL-6 and blood pressure variability may play a synergistic role in the process of osteoporosis; and IL-6 may be a risk factor for postmenopausal osteoporosis in women.

OBJECTIVETo study the clinical efficacy of semiextended intramedullary nailing of the tibia using a suprapatellar approach for proximal tibial fractures.

METHODSFrom January 2013 to January 2014, a total of 16 patients with unilateral proximal tibial fractures, 14 males and 2 females, underwent closed reduction and internal fixation with TRIGEN™ META-NAIL™ via the suprapatellar approach. The average age was 42.2 years old (ranged, 26 to 57 years old). Radiographic and clinical follow-up examinations were performed at a minimum of 1 year after surgery. Measurements included surgery time, complications, bone healing time, tibial alignment, knee range of motion, pain scoring (visual analogue scale) and functional outcome (Lysholm knee score).

RESULTSThe average surgery time was (75.7±8.3) minutes (ranged, 65 to 95 minutes). No obvious complications were recorded. Average duration of follow-up was (15.6±8.1) months (ranged, 12 to 24 months). Fifteen patients attained radiological bone union for a mean time of (3.6±1.8) months (ranged, 3 to 5 months). At the final follow-up, all tibial alignments were good, and no patients complained of anterior knee pain. Mean arc of knee motion was (124.4±18.8) degrees for the affected extremity compared with (127.5±16.7) degrees for the contra-lateral knee. The total scores of Lysholm knee score ranged from 77 to 92, average 86.4±12.3.

CONCLUSIONFor proximal tibial fractures,the semiextended intramedullary nailing technique via a suprapatellar approach can obtain satisfactory clinical outcomes with simplicity in reduction and fixation, minimal complications, and good recovery of limbs function.

A novel biosensor for aflatoxin B1 detecting has been reported. The biosensor electrode for AFB1 detecting was assembled by immobilized aflatoxin-oxidoreductase using open-ended multi-walled carbon nanotubes as matrix. Its linear range was between 0.16?M and 3.2?M. And if the specific anti-aflatoxin B1 antibody and aflatoxin oxidoreductase were both immobilized on the electrode with Multi-Walled carbon nanotubes, the detection limit of the modified electrode could be 16 nM with a 10 times improved sensitivity. The aflatoxin enzyme biosensor assembled this way strode one step forward its practical application.
